Hi Everyone,
Thanks for all your replies. I guess part of the problem is I haven't watched many comedies in a long while. Those older ones don't push my buttons anymore, and many of them have shall we say cultural problems related to the times they come from that I have a hard time not taking too seriously or letting go of. Also, especially the ones from my childhood (the 80s) also just seem like they aren't funny, or are best left in the past. I remember in the 90's I really liked Third Rock from the Sun. And like I mentioned, I like My Name is Earl enough to own the DVDs. I can't think of any comedy movies that I like, but I haven't seen any movies in ages. I watched Birdcage with Robin Williams this summer as an homage to him (I did a Robin Williams binge - which was much shorter than I would have liked because my library was missing many classics.) This was really nice. I didn't like Woody Allen movies even before I found out what he did to his daughter. Now that I can't stand the idea of him, I definitely don't want to watch his movies. I just put Pitch Perfect (to give it a try), Galaxy Quest (as an Alan Rickman homage), and Groundhog Day in my library queue. Also, many of the suggestions are unavailable at my library. |
